The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Have fun!

Wish G'nad was here to post that picture of the boy crumpled down with his hands over his head. (know the one of which I speak?)

Your room looks great and the puppies are so cute! How old are they now?

The pups are about 7 or 8 months now, not really sure. They're so big! I can't believe how fast they grew, they were tiny little guys when we brought them home.

I like to take half an avocado, slice it up, top it with a couple slices of crumbled bacon, some cheese, and then salsa and sour cream. Tasty, and surprisingly filling.

In fact, I think that sounds like a good breakfast...

We're glad too...I wonder where in the world she went to. We went to most of the neighbors, but she had to be hold up somewhere...she looks too good.

The other day I had an avocado, american cheese and liverwurst sandwich with mayo on pumpernickel rye. Very tasty.

I'm the only person in the family that eats liverwurst, so when I buy it, I eat a lot of it!

Oh - good! Wouldn't you love to have a tracking device that could tell you where the heck she's been? Is she spayed?

She may or may not do it again, depends on whether it ended up being a fun experience! :~\ You think it was the ice storm, the popping of the trees that freaked her out? or some call of the wild?

The video I was talking about...takes a minute to start, but it is there.

Pretty funny. And far too catchy.

I'm not sure the doctor's office is supposed to be ~fun~.

A bit of possible good news. The orthopedic doctor snarked a little bit at the "evidience" from the Doc-in-the-Box that Mrs. took Jr. to. Said they err on the side of caution.

He couldn't see a fracture in the x-ray they sent, so he took another.

He doesn't ~see~ a fracture, but thinks there could still be a small frature that will show up later. He wants to see him again in two weeks. There's nothing dislocated and he suspects is may just be a very bad sprain.

So that's good.

This is something you did on purpose?

Jack Bauer couldn't make me eat liverwurst.

Heh heh! That's one of the nice things about it...nobody ever eats my liverwurst up from me.

It's mine all mine!
